Shaving Hardware Comparison Guide

  • The Henson Aerospace Advantage (AL13 & Ti22): Unlike cast zinc razors, the Henson is CNC-machined in Ontario, Canada to AS9100 aerospace tolerances, locking the blade at a fixed 30-degree shaving angle with near-zero blade exposure (0.033mm on Mild / 0.068mm on Medium). This eliminates blade chatter and razor burn for sensitive skin and body shaving.
  • Compared to Rockwell 6S / 6C: The Henson AL13 is ultra-lightweight (~37g aluminum vs. ~118g stainless steel on the Rockwell 6S) with zero moving settingsβ€”prioritizing effortless, foolproof angle control over adjustable plate customization.
  • Assembly Check: Always ensure the scalloped lather channels on the baseplate face UP toward the blade when screwing the handle on (if installed upside down, the blade edge won't meet the hair).

Stop Shaving. Start Gliding.
The Henson AL13 (Mild) in Tan is not just a razor; it is a precision instrument designed to end razor burn forever. By clamping the blade with aerospace rigidity, it removes the "chatter" that causes cuts. It’s the last razor you will ever need to buy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this safe for beginners?

Yes! This is the #1 recommended razor for beginners. The geometry is fixed, so you don't need to learn "technique." Just press it against your skin and sweep.

Can I use this for legs and underarms?

Absolutely. The AL13 Mild is famously popular for body shaving because the "no-clog" channels wash out hair instantly, and the head design prevents nicks on knees and ankles.

How is this different from the Medium?

This is the Mild version. It has less blade exposure, making it smoother and safer for daily shaving or sensitive skin. The Medium is for coarse beards and multi-day stubble.

Expert Knowledge Base & Buyer Protection

How does Free Global Shipping over $75 CAD work, and do you ship to the USA, Europe, Nordics, and worldwide?+

Yes! All orders dispatch from our Canadian warehouse in Chestermere, Alberta.

Standard shipping is tracked wherever available through destination postal/courier networks, and ships via reliable International Air Mail where tracked service is not available.

Refusing a parcel at customs results in actual round-trip courier return fees being deducted from your refund.

What is your return policy, 12-hour cancellation window, and 24-hour transit damage protocol?+

Orders operate on a strict 12-hour cancellation window from the time of purchase before locking for warehouse fulfillment. Unused, unwashed, factory-sealed items in their original packaging may be returned within 30 days of delivery via an authorized RMA (subject to a 10% inspection/restocking fee; original and return shipping costs are non-refundable).

Helpful Hardware Tips: (1) On Henson razors, ensure the scalloped lather channels on the baseplate face UP toward the blade during assembly so the blade edge engages properly; (2) On DOVO carbon-steel straight razors, blot the blade dry after every shave and store outside steamy bathrooms to prevent oxidation.

Why is the Henson AL13 safety razor better for sensitive skin and preventing razor burn?+

The Henson AL13 is precision-milled from aerospace-grade aluminum to hold the blade at an exact 30-degree angle with minimal blade exposure. This eliminates blade chatter and cuts hair cleanly at the skin level, drastically reducing razor burn and ingrown hairs.

Will the Henson razor rust or degrade over time?+

No. Henson razors are manufactured using aerospace-grade aluminum and tungsten, making them completely rust-proof, incredibly durable, and lightweight. It is engineered as a permanent, zero-waste replacement for disposable plastic razors.

Do I need to buy special replacement blades for the Henson safety razor?+

Not at all. The Henson razor accepts any standard double-edge safety razor blade. While we highly recommend pairing it with premium Astra or RK stainless steel blades for optimal performance, the universal design offers ultimate flexibility and cost savings.
